NON-VISIBLE AIR TERMINAL DEVICE FOR COMBINATION WITH FINELY PERFORATED STANDARD METAL CEILING TILES

For a seamless ceiling appearance without visual interruptions

Non-visible due to the black coated functional unit located on the reverse of the diffuser face or ceiling tile
Flexible combination options with various standard perforated metal ceiling tiles or a factory-made perforated sheet metal front
Maximum comfort due to swirling air distribution, swift reduction of supply air velocities and temperature differences
Easy installation, with either plenum box or direct air connection

General information

Application

Ceiling swirl diffusers for supply air and extract air for use in ventilation and air conditioning systems
For installation in comfort and industrial zones
Can be combined with standard metal ceiling tiles but without acoustic fleece or factory-made perforated sheet metal front (LBK or LBS)
Mounted functional unit non-visible:
Particularly suited as a design element for building owners and architects with high standards
Horizontal swirling supply air discharge for mixed flow ventilation
The efficient swirl creates high induction levels, thereby rapidly reducing the temperature difference and airflow velocity (supply air variant)
For constant and variable volume flows
For supply air to room air temperature differences of –12 to +10 K
For room heights up to 4 m (lower edge of suspended ceiling)
For ceiling systems of all types, especially for standard perforated metal ceiling tiles (free cross-section ≥ 15 %)

Special characteristics

Visually inconspicuous or non-visible functional unit
Functional unit consists of discharge nozzle, swirl element and spigot
For a visually uniform ceiling appearance: Installation behind standard perforated metal ceiling panel provided by the customer (free cross-section ≥ 15 %)
- Maximum ceiling tile thickness: ≤ 1 mm
- Preferred ceiling tile thickness: ≤ 0.7 mm
Optionally with factory-fitted perforated sheet metal front to cover the functional unit

4 Damper blade for volume flow rate balancing

Ceiling swirl diffusers allow the supply air from ventilation systems to flow into the room in a swirl pattern. The resulting airflow induces high levels of indoor air, thereby rapidly reducing the airflow velocity and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Ceiling swirl diffusers enable large volume flow rates. The result is a mixed flow ventilation in comfort zones, with good overall indoor ventilation, creating only low turbulence in the occupied zone. TROX INVISIBLE DIFFUSER (TID) are characterised by their unobtrusive or inconspicuous installation. The swirl unit required for the swirling air discharge is not visible from the room. The special shape of the discharge nozzle allows the swirl effect to be used even behind standard perforated metal ceiling tiles or factory-made perforated metal sheet fronts. Type TID ceiling swirl diffusers have fixed air control blades. Air distribution is horizontal, with an omni-directional flow. The supply air to room air temperature difference may range from –12 to +10 K. A damper element in the plenum box simplifies volume flow rate balancing for commissioning. To give rooms an aesthetic, uniform look, Type TID diffusers may also be used for extract air.

Nominal sizes	160, 250, 300, 400, 600, 625 mm
Nominal diameter	125, 160, 200, 250, 315 mm
Supply air to room air temperature difference	-12 – +10 K

The quick sizing table gives a good overview of the possible volume flow rates and the corresponding sound power levels and differential pressure levels for the combinations with the different perforated sheet metal fronts. The minimum volume flow rates apply to a supply air to room air temperature difference of -6 K. The maximum volume flow rates apply to a sound power level of approx. 50 dB (A) with damper blade position 0°. Exact values for all parameters can be determined with our Easy Product Finder design program. The quick sizing tables for various sample perforations are listed below:

Specification text

Ceiling swirl diffusers for invisible or inconspicuous installation behind standard metal ceiling tiles or factory-made perforated sheet metal fronts. The ceiling swirl diffuser is suitable for comfort and industrial zones and is installed as a supply or extract air diffuser in the suspended ceiling. The swirling element with fixed air control blades enable a horizontal swirling supply air discharge creating high induction levels so that the airflow velocities and temperature differences are quickly reduced. The special shape of the discharge nozzle allows the swirl diffuser to be used behind standard perforated metal ceiling tiles. To ensure a visually uniform ceiling appearance, the standard metal ceiling tiles must not be thicker than 1.0 mm. Preferred thickness: ≤ 0.7 mm. The ceiling swirl diffuser can be combined with ceilings of all types using a factory-fitted perforated sheet metal front. The ready-to-install functional unit consists of the specially moulded discharge nozzle, the swirl element with fixed air control blades and spigot and is always coated black. The functional unit can be connected directly to the on-site air duct system or combined with a plenum box from the AK-Uni series. In case of a vertical connection, suspension lugs are provided for on-site fixing to the spigot. The plenum box has drilled holes for on-site fixing. All spigots are suitable for ducts according to EN 1506 or EN 13180. The sound power level of the air-regenerated noise is measured according to EN ISO 5135.
